A person aligned to a political party primarily concerned with liberal causes such as the enviroment, education, a de-emphasis on state's rights, strict construction, healthcare, 1st amendment rights and separation of church and state. In short, democrats are paragons of truth, virtue, and logic. The US would be a better place with more Democrats around.
Once we get a Democrat in the Oval Office, the country will get back on track.

Get the Democrat mug.
a political party who fights for civil rights. They also support the poor with welfare programs to make the middle class stronger.in order to create wellfare programs taxes must be raised to fund them. Now in my opion if the rich get taxed heavly and big buisnesses do to,it creates more small buisnesses and when theres more small buisnesses theres more conflict now if this happens the country will grow as a whole.many philosphers and great thinkers support the Democrat Theory.
Democrats unite the people of america have nothing to loose but there chains

The political party opposite the Republican party. Their beliefs are that everyone should live on welfare, and no one should be too rich. That it's OK to kill innocent unborn children, but killing serial killers is bad. And that Socialism is OK, as long as you call it "change." Their mascot is a donkey, and it suits them.
He's a democrat. He thinks everyone should be the working class, even though they rightfully earn their money

political party who beileves in raiseing taxes on the rich to help fund welfare programs ment to help the poor and keep the middle class strong.just like Aristole,Thomas Jefferson,Karl Marx,John manard Keynes,and other smart people the believe that a strong middle class makes a strong country.What Democrats are most famous for though is that they worship the human spirit and believe that everyone is equal and fight for civil rights.Even though the Democrats philosphy is better then the Republicans they often loose elections since they arent funded by big buisness or rich people as much.When a Democrat does become president though it has always been a surplus and a step forward in civil rights except jimy carter.The Ideal Democrat these days resembles an F.D.R or a more moderet democrat former president bill clinton.
a school gets funded in a poor neighberhood makeing it good enough to be teaching those students who want to go to college things that they need to learn to go to college. If that school is not funded those people remain in that poor comunity.THINK OF IT HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A GOOD PUBLIC SCHOOL THAT DOESENT GET ALOT OF GOVERMENT FUNDS DO WELL,AND DOES A BAD PUBLIC SCHOOL EVER HAVE A HIGH STUDENT SUCCESS RATE AFTER THE STUDENT HAS LEFT? the answer to that is no just look at texas,newyork,flordia,philly,ect who get poorly funded.
and the Democrats get 90% of the black(democrats arent racist like republicans,not all republicans are raceist but there is negative history their since the 60,s.

The only political persuasion left for free thinking people in the United States. The only viable political party left for libertarians who have brains enough to see that the Republican party has been taken over by greed-mongoring, war-mongering, closet-bigotted, crony-paying, corporatist assholes who are all too eager to cut your verteran father's healthcare, send your brother into battle without armor, strip your sick grandmother out of her medicaid coverage, and move your job overseas if can save them and their mega-rich buddies a few dollars.

Democrat is the designation of a political party that has sucked for a long time, but the only one left for anyone who thinks government doesn't belong snooping in your bedroom or in your church group.

Democrat is the only political label for anyone who gets laid on a regular basis. Because we all know that these stuffy no-dick asswipe Republicans aren't getting any. If you vote for bigger trucks and bigger bombs you must be compensating for something! And if you are a woman and vote Republican, you must have dried up a long time ago.

Democrat is the only way left to keep souless dry-balled pricks like Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld from fucking it up for everyone but their mega-wealthy buddies - using their talking monkey George Bush and their token Afro-American woman Condi Rice to make it all sound nice to those who aren't paying attention.

Democrat - if you care about your job, your family, and our country - is the only label with hope anymore.
See that guy over there? He's sexy, a survivor. He can kick some ass if he needs to but doesn't need to be a blow-hard bully to prove himself. He actually gets along with people of different colors and ways of life. He doesn't stuff his religion down your throat either. He doesn't think that screwing other people out of what they want and need is always the right way to get ahead, even if it is the easiest. He's probably read a few books without being forced to by a teacher. He must be a Democrat!

Those who support democracy, since the word democrat is derived from the word democracy. A political party opposite of republican, though, sometimes, hard to distinguish based on current well-known democrats who have been more republican-like such as Bill Clinton and Tom Daschle. A true democrat supports the welfare of everyone, as opposed to the welfare of only the 10% upper class.
An extremist democrat would be a communist, while an extremist republican would be a nazi.
